Just to clarify, Volrider, were you speaking to a PCC (an elected, political, Police & Crime Commissioner) or an appointed, non-political, Chief Constable? There's quite a big difference, I'd suggest.
Don't forget that PCCs have effectively done away with "Local Police Bodies", the old Police Authorities which were mostly made up of elected members of other bodies, before the PCCs called on a miniscule number of the electorate.
TC has some valid points re confidentiality. Inappropriate disclosure shines bad light on this forum, however public-spirited it may appear.
